Misc confusion

Starting top to bottom, L to R:
Melted slag (aluminum)
Melted slag (definitely not aluminum)
Tapered non-ferrous item: I’ve found several on this property. This is first one with no open seam up the length; no seam at all. Also this is first one with gold/brass color. The others are all with black (paint) or green patina like found on copper. Tried the, “What is it?” Forum w/o any ID.
Final item a nail, 7” long with 1/4” dia head. I’m no carpenter, but I can’t remember any nails this long with such little heads. Must have been for very soft wood, otherwise it would bend over.

Looks like a copper lightening rod tip to me.

At least you went hunting.

That was one of the original ideas. I can’t figure why the first 7 or 8 were patina covered and had a split in them,yet this one is not split and has no patina.

Yeah I myself have never seen a split lightening rod tip, so maybe I'm wrong on my guess. Is it copper?

I believe the first several were copper. This one appears to be brass.
